Whoa, Canada!

Castro’s the one with the beard. Trudeau’s the other tyrant.

It used to be that tyrants were content to tell you what you couldn’t say. But that’s not enough for them anymore. Now they want to tell you what you must say.

In Canada, if you’re a student who wants in on the Canada Summer Jobs grant program–you’re not gonna believe this–you have to declare your support for abortion as being part of your “core mandate” (http://ottawacitizen.com/news/politics/a-churchs-core-mandate-must-be-pro-choice-to-access-summer-jobs-grant-employment-minister-says/wcm/1a270a5e-1bc6-42cd-8883-2c5f938f9c4f). If you or your church does not support abortion, then you can’t get a grant.

A lawsuit has already been filed.

Some 70,000 students are expected to receive grants–but only if they’re all aboard for abortion. If you don’t check the abortion box on the application, get lost!

Canada’s prime minister, Justin Trudeau, laughs off the controversy as a “kerfuffle.” I mean, really, why shouldn’t you have to say you support abortion, if you want to work this summer?

And don’t be too surprised if they expand this to cover “gay marriage,” too.

Five hundred years ago, the Japanese government required Dutch traders to trample on the cross before they could do business in that country.

Now Canada does the same.

Here it is, this week’s NWV piece.

Not to be a bore on the subject of all these new laws–some of them were never actually legislated–telling you all these things you must do: and that’s something that a lot more people ought to be talking about.

This Is Not How Honest People Behave

E&E Legal (the Energy & Environmental Legal Institute) has sued the Vermont Attorney General “to release public records related to conspiracy of AGs [state attorneys general] seeking to use RICO [Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act] to punish and silence Climate Change ‘deniers’,” according to a press release ( http://eelegal.org/2016/06/13/press-release-ee-legal-sues-vermont-for-stonewalling-public-records-request/ ). It seems records are being shuffled back and forth between Vermont and New York “to keep secret public documents the public has a right to see,” E&E charges.

Well, hey, we’ve been warned about this ( http://www.newsmax.com/GeorgeWill/climate-change-deniers/2016/04/24/id/725453/ ). The Global Warming mob and its Democrat cohorts in our gangster government are actually trying to outlaw an opinion and silence any expression of it. They can’t convince the public that “Man-Made Climate Change” is real, so they fall back on brute force. Well, that’s one way to win an argument: “Shut up, or we’ll throw you in jail!”

I’ve never seen this in my lifetime–a genuine government effort to shut down debate over public policy by criminalizing dissent.

Honest people do not win arguments this way.

But Global Warming is too good to let go. It provides would-be tyrants with an excuse for anything they have a mind to do. “We gotta do it because it’s the only way to Save the Planet!” And anyone who dares voice a doubt is looking down the barrel of a prison sentence.

If George Washington were alive today, he’d be leading an army in a march on the city that so unworthily bears his name.

Think about that on Election Day.

Don’t let it be said that you failed to do everything in your power to prevent another Democrat from taking office.

Because they won’t stop this mischief unless we stop them.

Too Much Diversity?

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

A liberal friend of mine–honest, he’s a good guy in spite of his hopelessly wrong ideology–is upset that an ultra-Orthodox Talmud school in England won’t let students enter who are driven to school by their mothers. “The government,” he observes, “says that’s illegal.”

Here we have a picture-perfect demonstration of the irrationality of the Diversity crowd. They’re always saying how they want diversity, and then someone comes along who’s a little too diverse and they want to shut him down. An ultra-Orthodox Talmud school is too much diversity! Not allowed, not allowed!

You can have all the diversity you want, as long as you conform to whatever standards they think you ought to conform to. You can have your ultra-Orthodox Talmud school, as long as you don’t have any of those ultra-Orthodox standards in it.

As long as you let the blob from The Gender Spectrum come in every day and teach the kindergarten kiddies, “You can be a boy one day and a girl the next, depending on how you feel,” well, then, you can have your Talmud school.

If you can’t understand that, welcome to the club.
